Daqin Fusu: It is difficult to start the battle

Chapter 135: Being old and strong!
Ziying held back his laughter, deliberately ignored Yingyinman's distress signal, and concentrated on telling Fusu what he had seen and heard in Nanhai County.

Fusu was also listening carefully, asking questions from time to time.

As a traveler, what he is familiar with is the steel and concrete jungle more than 2000 years later, not the almost primitive Lingnan now.

Fusu noticed that when he asked Ziying about the planning of the sugarcane plantation, the expression on his face was something Fusu had never seen before.

Perhaps this is the joy of farming.

After Ziying briefly talked about the situation in Nanhai County, Fusu immediately asked about the things he was most concerned about:

"How is Ren Xiao's health?"

Fusu is well aware of the muqiang instinct of the barbarians. With Ren Xiao, a murderer who can make children stop crying, the Yueren from the three counties in Lingnan will obediently kneel on the ground and call him father.

The corner of Ziying's mouth twitched slightly, just when Fusu thought he was about to tell bad news, Ziying said slowly:

"Before I came back, the concubine Renjun Xinna had just given birth to his seventh son..."

Um?If I remember correctly, Ren Xiao should be almost sixty this year... Fu Su nodded, his face full of joy: "You will grow stronger and stronger, you will grow stronger and stronger!"

Giving birth in old age is a better proof of a person's physical fitness than a bucket of rice and ten catties of meat.

Fu Su thought to himself, I hope Ren Xiao can live five to ten years longer than in history, so that he can train a qualified successor.

He tapped the ruler in his hand on the table, and Ying Yinman, who had pricked up her ears to listen to their conversation, trembled suddenly.

"I can't recite today's fifteen lines of "Yuán Li Pian", so I won't have food tonight!"

Fu Su looked at Ying Yinman whose eyes turned red in an instant, and felt that the future Oscar would definitely owe her a statuette. She cried when she said she cried, and laughed when she talked about it. Who did she follow?
In his vague memory, his mother, the princess of Chu State, was a very calm and literary young woman, comparable to Lin Daiyu in the Red Mansion.

As for the "Yan Li Pian" mentioned by Fu Su, it is a children's literacy publication based on prison laws and decrees.

It is worth mentioning that the author of this book is Zhao Gao, the magistrate of CRRC during the reign of Emperor Shihuang...

"Yinman is still young, Your Majesty doesn't have to be so strict." Ziying smiled and persuaded her.

"Small? A folk woman from Qianshou, she is about to become a mother when she is her age!" Fusu glared at Ying Yinman, who would be bright with a little sunshine, and continued:

"As the princess of my Daqin, I don't know if the shoulder pole is upside down... I don't know a lot of big characters, so what does it look like when it spreads!"

"Leave her alone and let her practice calligraphy honestly. Let me ask you, did you bring back the rice seeds and cotton that I sent people to Xianyang?"

Because Ziying and him are close blood relatives, Fusu deliberately became very rude when speaking.

This is the custom of this period. For example, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty often chatted with Wei Qing when he was shitting. For this reason, Tai Shigong hated Wu and Wu, and compiled Wei Qing into the biography of Ning Xing in Shiji...

Of course, the young God of War, who was born rich, did not escape this catastrophe...

Ziying was silent for a while, then said with a smile: "The minister came back too quickly, and the car was easy to follow, so the rice seeds and other heavy things all moved forward with the team."

Heh, the 4000 jin of brown sugar was quite heavy, so it was rushed to Xianyang...Fu Su smiled without saying a word, and suddenly thought of what Chen Ping said, the final transaction price of the brown sugar pre-sale coupons was above [-] renminbi .

Fusu immediately wondered whether this was the first futures transaction in Qin State...

As for Fusu asking Ziying to transport rice and cotton seeds back to Xianyang, it was because in this era, many places in the Yellow River Basin were suitable for rice cultivation!

Even in the previous plan, the reason why Yan Zhan, the governor of Yuyang County, was able to get the "best", that is, the highest evaluation, was not only because he was the son of Lord Yan, who belonged to the old Qin people who were very powerful. The most important thing is that he organized farming in Yuyang County and opened up more than [-] hectares of rice fields in Hunu County (now Shunyi County)!
You must know that in this era, there is no upland rice technology.

Therefore, Fusu plans to open a field in Shanglinyuan after the beginning of spring and plant Champa rice. After a few seasons of planting, the southern rice gradually adapts to the soil and temperature in the north, and then spread it to the whole world.

Do the same with cotton seeds.

Although the quality of Asian cotton is not as good as that of African cotton passed from Egypt, as later generations say, it is a good plaster that can pull out pus!

Two years of breeding, three years of promotion, five years later, Qin people will be able to wear a large number of thick cotton cloth, instead of being like now, the main thing to keep out the cold is to rely on righteousness!
If you want to send envoys to get African cotton back, it will take ten years of hard work to achieve the above effect!

After all, there are no airplanes and high-speed rails now, and the traffic mainly depends on walking...

Fu Su had a sudden thought: "Do you think Li Shang and Yue Qiying can catch up with the La Festival military parade?"

Ziying thought for a while, calculated in his heart, and said in a firm tone: "If you let them leave the brigade and advance at full speed, it should be possible."

Fusu recruited a Huangmen waiting for an edict, and asked him to inform Li Cheng to draft a document, and asked Li Shang to lead the team to advance at full speed, enter Guanzhong from Wuguan, and go directly to Yongcheng to camp and wait for inspection.

Ziying remonstrated: "Your Majesty, the people of Yue are loose, and I'm afraid they won't be able to show the majesty of our Qin army."

Fusu shook his head, but he didn't intend to explain further. The Yueqi Battalion participated in the military parade not to show off Qin's military power to the world and the barbarians everywhere, but to show it to the Qin clan.

In his five-year plan, the world is divided into several plates.

For example, relying on Guanzhong and Hanzhong, the northwest plate faces the Xiongnu north of Jiuyuan County and the Western Regions west of Jincheng County;

Relying on the three counties of Hedong, Shangdang, and Taiyuan, the northern plate in the direction of Yunzhong County, Dai County, Shanggu County and the counties of Zhaodi;

Relying on the counties of Qidi, the northeast plate towards Liaodong, Liaoxi, and Yuyang Youbeiping;

Relying on Sanchuan County and Yingchuan County, the central plate towards Huainan and Jiangnan regions;

Relying on the Pearl River Delta in Nanhai County, Youjiang Basin in Guilin County, Nanning Basin, Yujiang Plain, Xunjiang Plain and other land suitable for cultivation, the southern plate in the direction of Lingnan, South Asia, and Jiaozhi;
Relying on the Shujun Plain, the Qiang people in the southwest, and the southwest plate in the direction of Berkshire and central Guizhou;

As for the development of the southern region, Fusu intends to mainly use economic colonization, such as tea gardens, such as sugar cane plantations.

The world is all for profit.

For this reason, he arranged for Han Rang to make a move quietly, pushing up the price of the brown sugar pre-sale coupon all the way up to 3500 yuan.

Of course, with the last 4000 dollars thrown into his hands, Fusu can only be called a leek...
